AGM 2024

The Chess Club AGM is on Wednesday, 3rd July at 7.30 pm - at our usual venue in Buckley.


Please try to be there - there are things we need to discuss.

Following the sad death of Frank Salt, we need to discuss the venue - he usually got the key and opened up.

Also, I will have less time to give to the club next season - we need to look at captaincy and other roles in the club.

If there are other things we need to discuss, let me, Mark Thomas or Angus know, please.

Stephen Dunning
